Zinn's reading talks about Chicano men and their masculinity. Chicano men are not treated very well in society, they don't get very good jobs and if they do get a job their boss treats them like crap. This cases them to be mad at their wives and children. I think the issue they are having is a internal one because they may feel bad about being put down all the time by their bosses or by anyone in society. They don't like the way they are treated so they take it out on others inferior than them.

As Marable and Espiritu mentioned in their articles, I do believe that women play a role in masculinity. I say this because a woman is what helps a man builds his masculinity, meaning a women boosts them and they act more manly. Men try to be manly so they can get noticed by women. As Marable said in his article the black woman have been through everything alongside the black male, such as slavery. A man having a woman by his side will make him feel like more of a man.

Blog Post #9: Coltrane
Children raised by one parent are usually more independent than one's raised by both parents. Children that are raised by single parents are more independent because they will see the obstacles that their parent have to deal with and this can affect the child. Single parenting can cause a child to be more responsible about everything and appreciate life more. I think That both parents are better for a child to have in their lives than one. With both parents, the child can have both a male and female figure.
